Cooper Johns jersey presentation was physically by Bellamy but with mum and dad on video call but I thought it was interesting in the kids quick speech he mentions and thanks Jason Ryles (and nobody else by name) a couple of times.
Thought I'd mention it on here as we were talking assistant coaches a bit the other day. Wouldn't have expected a storm player, especially a half, to be singling Ryles out by name so he is obviously doing good work there.

So Cooper Johns son of Matty to debut tonight for Storm. Melbourne have a number of outs but I reckon they will still do over a lackluster and unconvincing Eels side but should be belter of a game regardless and I expect Eels to improve.

No better coach and structure in the game than Bellamy when it comes to swapping out injured/suspended players and still performing to a high professional standard

Storm are out to $3 for the win which is a really good bet. Eels are stupid short. Storm are better than even chance at getting the 2 points, I would prob still have them as the fav to win actually

Yeah I’m still tipping the Storm to win. They always rise above this sort of thing. In saying that though, if there was a week they’d finally crack, this might probably it.

Just read into it a little, sounds like he is very popular at Melbourne, wonder if they are expecting/hoping he comes back upskilled a bit further and ready to take over from Bellamy.

There's massive raps on Ryles as a coach. Absolutely think he's in the frame to replace Bellamy. I don't see Storm replacing Craig with someone who didn't learn their craft from him & I don't see them ****ing about trying to lure anyone back like O'Brien for instance.

According to reporter in Bombers media this arvo we have made the most captains challenges of any club.
Got correct 5/15
Bomber agrees there were 'a couple of ones we should never have challenged'

Hectic has told Storm in writing he'll seek a release if Captain Cam plays on next year.

So this would obviously be because he wants the hooker role.

I'd go all out for him if he'd be happy to slot in at lock or second row.

Young Brailey will do me for hooker.
